Baby quilt finished!!

Yay! I finished quilting and binding the baby quilt last night and it's
off ot its new home today at noon. I'm really excited. I've only seen
photos of little Andrea so far, but she's obviously a true beauty.

The quilt was started after my mom sent me an old McCall's magazine
article. Then I saw Mini's quilt -- thanks Mia for letting me borrow
some of your really good ideas -- and the two inside borders were born
as well as the back border. I quilted each print block according to the
design on the quilt. The only one where I didn't follow the designs was
the ones with polka dots and there, I just made big circles. It was
really fun. I put on two appliques....had to restrain myself from
covering it in flowers and butterflies. My quilting is not great, but
it's enthusiastic and I hadh a really g ood time making this little
quilt.

What an adorable quilt, Sunny! Bright and cheerful, which is perfect for
a baby -- and even the back has interest because of the border you so
cleverly added there. As for your enthusiastic quilting, I don't see
anything wrong with it -- it's terrific! Did you say it was your first
free-motion quilting, or am I remembering someone else? G

This is brilliant! I love your bright color choices. I
hope the one I'm working on turns out half as well.

It really does look splendid, Sunny.
I love the way that pattern has evolved. Those two narrow bright
borders really set it off.
Your quilting is fine, and very pretty - and you enjoyed it all. Great!

Thank you Emilia!
I don't know about the fabric being better than on yours, mostly just
different. I will tell you that s everal of the pieces aren't "fabric"
bought at a fabric store. They're cut out of shirts and skirts I found
at garage sales and t hrift stores. I love to do that -- find a
brilliantly colored garment that's cotton (or silk) and buy it for a
bit of nothing and take it home and cut it into useable pieces. Very
fun

Thanks again, for the sweet words and for the inspiration!

Sunny

IT"S FABULOUS!!!

And (as I was complaining in an early post), your fabrics are so much
nicer than mine! It makes me sad that I'm stuck in the fabric desert!
(

But at least I get to live vicariously though all of you here! )

Great Quilt, Sunny! I love it!
